So what is the real deal in this World ?
Once upon a shine, a long time aglow.
A beautiful bright star, as fine as any Goddess.
She has long held the dominant position in the sky,
and had been admired by all for her beauty.
But lately, she felt unwell.
Indeed it seemed as though her life
were ebbing away.
Failing and failing, she clung to any companion star she could find,
only to discover that they, too,
felt the deathly grip
and were weakening.
Once upon a shine, a long time aglow.
Starry starry night.
A trillion points of light, with one for every living creature on Earth.
(I said she got a slow glow)
This little light of mine, gonna let it shine.
What she dreaded at last devoured her glorious presence entirely.
The night came and she was no more.
Once upon a shine, a long time aglow.
Many nights the mortals had stood in awe of her beauty.
Once upon a shine, a long time aglow,
all the stars dissolved in the presence of the mighty sun.
But then again, on the seventh of the current twelve,
once again the presence of her beauty is shown.
A shepherd had gone out before sunrise,
just to be surprised by her shine.
The shepherd looked towards the East.
Fire and shimmering red birth of the Goddess.
It was she. It must be she.
No other star had the aura.
Such penetrating persona.
The Shepherd stood transfixed.
His eyes were scorched by the fresh star drippings.
It seemed as they watched the light and the flame of her beauty.
Resurging renewed existence, as quick as the sun behind her.
Starry night
Starry night
